IHOP

It was a wild day at IHOP. Maria seated us at a booth. Initial problem was the not wiped down. She fixed this. Then she took our order. The computerized system ate the order. This was discovered when she checked for our food at the counter of the kitchen. Nothing there at all. She remembered nearly every detail of the now missing order, and she then went to the kitchen and verified they had the order this time. Once our food finally showed up I was really sad I hadn't ordered the gluten free pancakes. My t-bone steak was wafer thin and not very tasty. My basic pancakes were good, the eggs were good as well. The gluten free pancakes were some of the best pancakes I had ever eaten. Complex flavors and a beautiful texture. And with 4 full sized cakes, it was more than enough to eat. And if you're lucky enough to get there some day when Maria is there - ask to be seated in her section.

I mean I wouldn’t go to an ihop expecting very much anyway. For a relatively cheap breakfast it wasn’t horrible. When we got there (party of 6) it wasn’t busy at all however we were made to wait for 10 minutes for a table. Not super sure why. Food overall again just ok. The fruit cup consisted of a sad piece of water melon, flavorless honey dew melon, pineapple and a few grapes. Turkey bacon? More like grease flop thing. Bacon? Skinny as a twig and crispy. I’m sure you could request it different. The server was nice. No Dr Pepper here just so you know. And for my fellow southerners there isn’t any sweet tea either. French toast is thick and fluffy. The gluten free pancakes won’t be fluffy but that’s to be expected.
